Akon - Mandela Lyrics
My knuckles all bruised up from knocking on heaven's door
My body still aching from sleeping on cement floors
I was taught to be non-violent when I'm at war
But it's so hard to move in silence when the lions roar
All alone in shackles (oh, went through it all, you blessed me)
You lift me up when I was down, no hope, no vision
Lift me up when all of y'all were against me, were against me
Now you'd come back to scarlet, the dark days
They'd all illuminate, yeah
We miss you, Mandella, we miss you, Mandella
Suffering no more, oh yes, a fight and I fight and I fight until I can't no more,
You see these whips and these chains around my neck just might be my flaw,
But these whips on my back represent what I endured
Cuz I was born in shackles (you protected my soul, you left me)
All alone in shackles (oh, went through it all, you blessed me)
You lift me up when I was down, no hope, no vision
Lift me up when all of y'all were against me, were against me
Now you'd come back to scarlet, the dark days
They'd all illuminate, yeah
We miss you, Mandella, we miss you, Mandella
Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom
You gave me my freedom
Freedom, freedom, freedom
And I will never surrender, I won't surrender
No surrender, no no
And I will never surrender, I won't surrender
No surrender, no no
You lift me up when I was down, no hope, no vision
Lift me up when all of y'all were against me
Now you'd come back to scarlet, the dark days
They'd all illuminate, yeah
We miss you, Mandella, we miss you, Mandella

I LOVE THE FACT THAT YOU ACKNOWLEDGED MANDELA. ITS TRULY SORRY FOR HUMANS ONLY TO RECORGNISE HEROES @ THEIR DEATH MOMENT IF NOT @ THEIR LIFE MOMENTS

Another great man who fought for his people just a pity they didn't have the people who cared for his African brothers and sisters.......And look who we have now......AKON .....But he cant be king cos he making music for me
As a South African and someone who has been a fan of Akon from Lonely. I'm proud of you brother.
If only Akon knew that Mandela died as a sell out, either way he would had died as a CNN tittle DICTATOR
This is how it goes
